Game Day Round 9 vs. WCE, Marvel, 1:00pm Sun 12/05

[Ctracks]

Looooong way to go

If we're gonna make Top4, we have plenty of time to make it happen

Just gotta keep banking the wins we should be banking. This week with the entire Top 8 playing each other, we have a chance to really create a platform for the second half of the season.

While I continue to not wear Collingwood merch when watching, we should be fine

What about for Owies?

He’s a real contributor, I have him in my best 22 with Silvagni and Fantasia, it brings a real level of shitene$$

 

[BuildEmUp]

We have a horrible record against them

And how does that impact the upcoming game? History has noting to do with it ( apart from premiers 2023 playing spooners 2023 ?)

You really ignore history when teams play each other? As in completely ignore it?

Don't get me wrong, history obviously doesn't 100% guarantee results, but it can be a decent indicator. Bogey sides and such have been a thing in footy for a long time.

Some teams/players also just seem to lift when they play certain teams.

Again, I understand not relying completely on history, but I don't think you can completely ignore it either. I won't go as far as to say I think West Coast will win, but I feel confident enough to put it in the danger game pile.

To me as far as this team's mental attitude to this season it's a massive test. A truly switched on Collingwood absolutely smashes them.

A complacent Collingwood still celebrating the Carlton win barely scrapes by or even loses.

I'm at the point where I wish they'd stop pointing out how good he is in the VFL

Because it doesn't seem to factor into anything

WC aren't playing like the easybeats, so absolutely not a gimme whatsoever

Although, no Yeo or Waterman will help us massively, they've been playing really well. Waterman would definitely kick a bag as Kennedy always seemed to

Yeah, talk is cheap. Show some faith in the kid.

Probably because that post isn’t a complete reflection of how things played out.



Bytel was better on the day and is building a body of work that’s now on the verge of being tested at senior level.

It's a shame Allan is coming along slowly as this would have been a good week to get his feet wet

 

[Pie thon]

Reef in for the the feral chainsaw (McCreery, preseason nickname that dropped off)

For Schulz, take your pick out of Richards, MaCrae and Bytel

Id rather Sidey or WHE sub to see how shooters replacement goes, but they will likely be the sub

 

[Harry O]

Need a replacement for Mihocek for next month

And we wont even know which way they'll go until friday lol given the extended bench they'll name 8 players

I heard a rumour of a leg issue.. that legit?

 

[Harry O]

Yes

 

[Jen2310]

Yes

That is really unfortunate.
Guess Johnson would have to be the replacement, even if he isn't exactly lighting it up so far.

Or Dean defence and say Howe or Frampton forward

 

[Jen2310]

Yup, thats another possibility

 

[stormskye]

Or Dean defence and say Howe or Frampton forward

Weakening both areas IMO. Better to keep defence strong and use a makeshift forward line

 

[Ctracks]

Contracted for next year...what if he or Collingwood ask around at the end of the year?
Anyhow, as long as Collingwood keep winning I'm not fussed.

 

[Jen2310]

Kreuger? Haha

Something else to consider lol

Confirmed Checkers hammy
